My name is Wil, and i'm in High School currently with low ID and Autism.

Do I have to have friends at school? Is it okay to hang out on my own playing on my iPad?

It's okay to play on your ipad on your own. You shouldn't be forced to hang out with a person if you don't feel like it.

Why don't you want to have friends?

Yeah its ok. I do that all the time. I go sit on a bench in a quiet corner and I wait until next class. Sometimes I read a book, other times I do nothing. I don't have a mobile device.
